The block has been staged. Mark, can you review and push?

I think a user should have the option to "override" this, to allow them to use a tool they need, once they are aware of the possible consequences. After all, isn't that what we're all about ... not allowing "big brother" to control us? Well, this could be viewed as a "big brother action".
Thanks for listening ...

I agree with rAllcorn. The option to override a block is a matter for the user to decide. The only obligation, seeing as you're taking it upon yourselves to arbitrate on this, is to explain with sufficient detail what the risk is. Otherwise I will use a different browser, simple as that!
